LIPS VS Joplin

Sweet, I'll have to give that a go :)

Another option in browser land is lips[0], which exclusively targets a js backend.

For Scheme implementations there are LIPS and biwascheme. I haven't done more than play around with them, so I can't really give an informed opinion about pros and cons or favorites.

Your example revealed a bug in my Scheme interpreter. This is an example that fails to match:

In my interpreter, LIPS Scheme, vector literal syntax is created using a syntax extension, a token that is mapped to a function or a macro. So you can use things like this:

I'm not sure about other Scheme interpreters but in my interpreter LIPS Scheme, there is (env) function that returns a list of symbols. You can also access environment objects e.g. (current-environment) return object that is used internally. And you can even access the scope chain because the env object has __parent__ property that returns the parent scope.

Few of my Open Source projects: * jQuery terminal * LIPS Scheme * Gaiman * Sysend * Wayne

(define promise (--> '>(fetch "https://lips.js.org/") (then (lambda (res) (res.text))) (then (lambda (text) (. (text.match #/\s*([^>]+?)\s*<\/h1>/) 1)))))

ngl when I first saw the headline my first thought was, “Wait, bring CAR into JavaScript? Make it a Lisp? But hasn't it already been done?”

Languages like Biwa Scheme and LIPS Scheme are good for running Scheme in the browser. But I would prefer compiling Scheme code to JavaScript in the server, then serving the compiled JavaScript image to the browser.

I've had great success with using Joplin for this, with Syncthing as a sync backend. Works well across OSes; I use it on Linux, macOS, Windows and Android.

The tools to manipulate SQL aren't that bad, no.

But rather than having a self explanatory markdown & flat file, now I have to start learning about the schema & making specific tools (in my preferred language) for manipulating Joplin's schema.

Suddenly I'm digging through 20 different technic specs to decode what data is where, how it works, and what I can do to it. Want to edit history? This is the best help you'll get, pray it's adequately technical to expedite you to your purpose: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/blob/dev/readme/dev/spec...

As I began with, I struggle to imagine anything that generates anywhere near as much user agency as flat files and markdown. Having boring common data & systems lets me apply portable skills I already have, rather than having to skill up in some particular product's own ecosystem.

Joplin is a good open source option too, feels more like the original Evernote in terms of UI/UX https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/

Joplin, an open source, extendable, Markdown-based hierarchical note-taking app: https://joplinapp.org/

It lets you choose a synchronization backend, offers applications for every major desktop and mobile OS (also has a terminal version). You can create notebooks and subnotebooks to organize your notes. You can also add tags for better search experience. I created notebooks for specific domains (work-related, home improvement, etc.) and also keep a "temp" for quick notes and W.I.P. snippets.

Its only con that it uses Electron on desktop which causes relatively slow start of the application.
